Are new Acoustics better or is it just me?

I haven't been really putting in the time to play and read up on things as much as I used to but I'm getting back into it and I went to GC the other day and they had an Acoustic stack and I was blown away by the fact that it didn't sound like... Well you know what I mean. Are new Acoustics actually sounding better? Can someone maybe shed some light here?

I have the last incarnation of the B200 and have no complaints whether it's used as the only bass output or if it's just for on stage sound. It doesn't compare to the GK stack I used to have but then it's only a combo amp.

However, I think it handles a variety of sounds better than any other amp I've used. I've used it with both an upright, a jazz bass and an Ibanez soundgear.
